رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «إِذَا غَابَ اَلْقُرْصُ أَفْطَرَ اَلصَّائِمُ وَ دَخَلَ وَقْتُ اَلصَّلاَةِ.
Amru ibn Shimr narrated from Jabir, from Abu Ja'far (a.s), who said that the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) said: "When the disk of the sun disappears, the fasting person may break their fast, and the time for prayer begins."
وقال أبي - رضي الله عنه - في رسالته إلي: يحل لك الافطار إذا بدت ثلاثة أنجم وهي تطلع مع غروب الشمس. وهي رواية أبان عن زرارة عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام.
My father—may Allah (swt) be pleased with him—in his letter to me said: It is permissible for you to break your fast when three stars appear, rising with the sunset. This is also narrated by Aban from Zurara, from Abu Ja'far (a.s).
وَ رَوَى اَلْحَلَبِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ اَلْإِفْطَارِ قَبْلَ اَلصَّلاَةِ أَوْ بَعْدَهَا قَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ مَعَهُ قَوْمٌ يَخْشَى أَنْ يَحْبِسَهُمْ عَنْ عَشَائِهِمْ فَلْيُفْطِرْ مَعَهُمْ وَ إِنْ كَانَ غَيْرُ ذَلِكَ فَلْيُصَلِّ ثُمَّ لْيُفْطِرْ.
Al-Halabi narrated from Abu Abdullah (a.s) that he was asked about breaking the fast before or after prayer. Imam (a.s) said: "If he is with a group and fears delaying their dinner, let him break his fast with them. Otherwise, let him pray first, then break his fast."
